Ramcharran Persaud's Obituary
Seeram (Ram), age 75, departed this earthly realm on March 14, 2023 at Jackson South in Miami FL from natural causes surrounded by his Loving Family.
He was born in Guyana Windsor Forest West Coast Demerara to the late Mr & Mrs Baldeo and his siblings include the late Brother Peter and Jaio. And surviving siblings Prakesh, Babakay, Shamo, Sattie and Dora. He was married to his loving wife, Data (Linda) for 55 years and three children were born to them, who are Paul, Lall, and Lynette. During his life in Guyana, he was a rice farmer, a tailor, and upholster. In 1990, he came to the United States with his family to start a new life. He lived in Miami for 33 years as a hard worker doing what he loved, which is sewing on his sewing machine. He was an independent man who was a true professional who provided marine canvas for boats with the company, Precision Boat Service, then retire and continue his personal marine canvasing at home, then he fell ill which led to his death.
He was led to the Christian Faith at an early age by his Grandfather the late Parboo and his Father Punish Baldeo where they were devoted members of Windsor Forest Christian Catholic Church where he accepted Christ and was baptized, later in life he became a husband and father he also led his Wife and Children to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Upon arrival in the US in Miami Fl, he journey out on his bike to find a church home and found First Baptist Church of Perrine (Christ Fellowship) and attended until his death. He loved the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and had a favorite song, which was ‘Jesus loves me this I know for the Bible tells me so.’
Ram will be deeply missed by his loving family, especially his beloved wife, Data. She has dedicated her life to her beloved husband from the time of marriage to when he was ill, up unto his death. He will be remembered by many lives he has touched. Ram, you have left this world but we are all happy that you are home free with the Lord and painless.
He is survived by his wife, Data, children, Paul, Lall, and Lynette. Daughter-in-law Sharda, Son-in-law Stoney and his three grandchildren are Shelly, David, and Gabriella with grandson-in-law Kyle and a host of cousins relatives and friends.
God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be, so he put his arms around you and whispered, “Come to me.” With tearful but joyful eyes his loving family watches as Our lord and Savior Jesus Christ received his last breathe and spirit and instantly brought him to heaven. Although you are loved dearly, we could not make you stay, a golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest, God broke each heart to prove He only takes the best.
The family of Ram wishes to thank everyone for the outpouring support, prayers, and compassion you have shown to all of us during our time of bereavement. Also, thanks to the Nursing home and Hospice support for the care they gave during the final moments of Ram’s wonderful life.
SAFELY HOME
By Harry VanderArk
I am home in heaven, dear ones. Oh, so happy and so bright! There is a perfect joy and beauty in the everlasting light.
All the pain and grief are over, every restless tossing passed; I am now at peace forever, safely home in heaven at last.
And He came Himself to meet me. In that way so hard to tread; and with Jesus’ arm to lean on Could I have one doubt or dread?
Then you must not grieve so sorely, For I love you dearly still; Try to look beyond earth’s shadows, Pray to trust our Father’s will.
There is work still waiting for you. So you must not idle stand; Do your work while life remaineth; You shall rest in Jesus’ hand.
When that work is all completed, He will gently call you Home; Oh! the rapture of the meeting! Oh! the joy to see you come.
